Heyo, I'll just get straight to it as this is my first post/progress thread I don't really know what to say...
I first bought my Audi A3 2.0 TDi 140 S-line from London on 30k miles, here's a photo of the car the first day I brought it home;
And this is the Audi next to my almighty first car... Corsa C 1.2 SXI, too cool...
Anyway, the first thing I wanted was the S3 grille as I thought it was just plain sexy, so as you do I bought one, and fitted it
Some pics of it fitted;
Once my grille was fitted, I was then thinking of having the S-line alloys that dark-greyish colour, then I took it to my friends local spray shop and he showed me this colour called "GALAXY GREY" from House of Kolor.
I instantly fell in love and decided to be abit different, not sure what you guys will think... here's the wheels after they got sprayed;
Once I pretty much done everything I wanted looks-wise outside, I decided abit more power won't hurt...
(Yes I know the car is high as hell, and dirty...)
buuuuut...
A cheeky re-map was a must do, and I must say what a difference it has made to the car, so much more fun to drive considering it's "just a diesel". I had this done at Audi Driver International 2012.
Here's a photo of mine and AshB's car on the way upto ADI;
After getting 1000's of nose bleeds from being up too high, I decided it was time to come down...
I bought H&R 35mm springs and H&R 10&12mm spacers from DPM Performance, seriously recommended company!
some pictures of them fitted, the red Golf is my mates car;
After looking at all these Audi's with the DRL headlights, and decided to get some myself!
I got in contact with Ash187 on this website as many people have recommended him, and he basically sorted me out.
One thing I was VERY disappointed in was the condition on the headlights that Ash187 supplied me, there are very bad water marks INSIDE of the headlight, strange I know. And the water marks are on both sides and yes the front of the lights have been cleaned, still no results. here's a few pictures what I mean;
But Ash187 promised to sort me out with another pair of lights in the future as I wasn't happy with the pair I was given, I will keep you updated in the future when he supplies me with another pair of headlamps
All in all he did do a good job which I cannot fault, they work fine and coded the car perfectly so they accept the DRL Headlights, just the condition of them was a let down.
Here's some pictures of the installation;
And RESULT!;
Let me know what you guys think,
Sorry if I blabbed on...
Thanks for reading!
